Most golfers are generally on the course trying to have a good time within the parameters of the etiquette that defines the game. To get really angry because someone on a nearby tee, green, or fairway may shout, move, or make noise that affects one of your shots seems silly to me. I would never approach someone in anger over such a thing unless it was deliberate and/or serial in nature.

On the other hand, I cannot abide slow play. I get very angry if I feel waiting has contributed to a poorly executed shot. I carry a special club for those situations. It has bits of hair, skin, and bone in the grooves. We call it The Instructor, because it teaches "ready" golf.

The people who I play with sometimes are very serious about their game. They are out there to have fun, but when they are getting ready to hit a shot they expect you to remain quiet and still.
They probably wouldnt scream at anyone in anger, but if you dont follow simple ettiquite, they definetly wont ask you to play with them again.
